Rams officially hosting international game in 2019, possibly in Mexico City

With the Los Angeles Rams awaiting the completion of their new stadium in Inglewood, the NFL has required them to play an international game each year until the venue opens in 2020. The Rams caught a break this year with the Mexico City game being moved to L.A. due to poor field conditions, but they’re likely heading back to Estadio Azteca in 2019.

The NFL announced the five teams hosting international games next year with four coming in London and one in Mexico City, and the Rams were unsurprisingly among them.

Given the circumstances surrounding this year’s Mexico City game, it’s highly likely the Rams go back to Estadio Azteca next season to make up for it. It’s unknown which team they’d bring with them, but it wouldn’t be the least bit surprising to see them playing there again.
